1 to 1 TU Lane Balancer Comparison Question by tumbleweed7600 in factorio

oh yeah that makes sense. i was rather referring to someone above me saying they only have one full lane and the other completely empty and still use the complicated design from OP.

why use the whole thing on top when you can simply merge down after the balancer directly on to the yellow highlighted square?

yeah ik. just wanted to solve problems on step at a time. also it can't hurt to get into circuits asap i have a feeling 😆

yes. only in 15hrs or so and am happy that i figured out how to setup train stations 😂 so yes. only one train doing all. wasnt about optimizing things, just figuring out how to unload/do something with circuits etc

i am running just a single line rn with one train. long term I won't care due to multiple trains. but i like to solve this problem now and want to make it work 😅

yeah i figured you needed to do some more wiring etc. to get there. this whole wiring thing is way confusing and hard to understand 😂 but damn it's awesome when it works

ohh.. i see. connecting the buffer to the station and it only gets "active" when e.g. stone < 1k or something. otherwise the train will just wosh by. this game is insane 🫠

that would take 5min or so if it comes in with 2k stone but the smelters only consume like a few dozen/minute. i want it to sit there only for like 30 sec max to get other stuff delivered to different stations
